LOL..what I meant is actual altitude above sea level is not so important as the density altitude. Combination of baro press,temp and humidity determine the density altitude. That is what affects the engines performance. Densitity altitiude can vary greaty depending on the conditions at different locations even if the 2 locations are the same height above sea level.
